These six details tell you what you're agreeing to. Under each one is how many of the 5 home builders in this report told us. ### Total price and what it includes Ask whether the quote includes permits, materials, cleanup and any equipment. A low number that leaves out part of the job isn't a low number. Disclosed by **0 of 5** home builders below ### Deposit at signing Know the amount before the first meeting. In many states a large deposit comes with legal deadlines for permits and a start date. Disclosed by **0 of 5** home builders below ### Payment schedule Payments should follow finished stages of work, never get ahead of it. Disclosed by **0 of 5** home builders below ### Warranty: what kind and how long Structural, materials, equipment and workmanship warranties are different things. Check which one the number refers to. Disclosed by **0 of 5** home builders below ### How changes are priced Changes after signing are where budgets drift. Ask for the method in writing: fixed price per change, or cost plus a markup. Disclosed by **0 of 5** home builders below ### Proof of insurance Ask for a current certificate of liability and workers' compensation insurance, sent by the insurer, before work starts. Disclosed by **0 of 5** home builders below ## Section 3 Comparison table All 5 home builders, listed alphabetically; the order is not a ranking.
